Samthing Soweto's 'Touch is a Move: Good Morning' explores nostalgia

The album is deeply rooted in his personal philosophy, echoing a rule from games played in childhood: once you touched a piece, you had to make the move, no hesitation, no take-backs.

The second phrase, Good Morning, echoes a ritual Soweto initiated in 2023, a daily greeting to his online audience that has fostered community ties.

Together, these themes frame an album dedicated to exploring the weight of words and routines in our lives.
